How GoFormz Can Promote Productivity in the Energy Sector

Energy sector productivity improvements with GoFormz digital forms

The energy sector is no stranger to challenges, especially over the last two decades. Between overwhelming policy changes, new technologies and resources, and a growing international interest and demand, there are endless opportunities for difficulties. But those energy firms that have found ways to leverage technology have seen improvements and growth in an industry filled with potential setbacks. GoFormz is the digital forms solution to help improve your workflows, data management, and safety adherence, all in one platform. 

What Can Mobile Forms Do for You?

Digital forms, especially mobile forms available on any mobile device, give your team an unmatched edge over your competition. Especially in the energy sector, facing continued supply chain and economic concerns, finding a way to minimize your operational costs while improving and streamlining your team’s productivity is priceless. Mobile forms give you the ability to eliminate paperwork, and the associated printing and storage costs, entirely, while also keeping your data organized, legible, and available in real-time.

When it comes to regulatory compliance and customer interaction, nothing beats digital forms. Electronic audit trails and detailed, customizable data capture mean that all of your existing energy industry regulatory forms will be filled out completely. This data can then be automatically transferred to any of your existing CRM or ERP systems, or made available in Cloud storage platforms for easy access. For customer-facing forms, nothing beats the experience of an online fillable form, customized with your company branding, and automated copies of completed emails routed to project managers, customers, and even key third parties.

GoFormz in the Energy Sector

GoFormz is uniquely built to support the energy sector in all the best ways. Not only are there native integrations with a wide variety of other platforms that you likely use within your tech stack, but GoFormz also offers an open API for customizable data communication. This means the only things you have to lose are your paper forms. 

With GoFormz mobile apps, available on any device, you won’t have to worry about your employees in the field, either. Seamlessly transfer forms and safety checklists from field to office with mobile forms, complete with unique data points including images and annotations, sketches, and even GPS points. No matter your location, the unique offline access to your forms means your field teams are always able to get their work done, even without phone connectivity. Unique features like barcode scanning, E-SIGN Act-compliant electronic signature fields, and dependent or required fields mean that you can customize your GoFormz experience to match your business needs. 

Keep your office team, your project managers, and your field team on the same page with multiple levels of review or approval for any of your forms. Whether you’re looking for a way to improve your site safety, or you want to be better prepared for potential audits, GoFormz keeps your detailed information organized with a complete audit trail of each form entry and edit. You can configure your account to automatically email completed form copies, or even alerts about a completed form that may need review, putting your existing paperwork processes on autopilot to save your team time and minimize oversights.
